look, people are weird about tumblr, but the entire site has been sidetracked for about a week on the spice used in the hungarian national dish back in the 19th century so we know whether or not we can accurately mock jonathan harker-dracula

Post about how I implemented the #indieweb and #webmentions on my static site. A few people expressed interest in such a write-up, I hope they weren't looking for something less dependent on third-parties...

This implementation works, I know what everything's doing and why. It's okay, but I'm aware it's the weakest part of my website, plus the only one where an actual third-party is involved.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy: @pete @tagomago @obsolete29 @CrowderSoup

Since we're all excited about the image of Sagittarius A*, here's a different view of the central regions of our galaxy.

In January the MeerKAT telescope in South Africa released a stunning radio dataset. In the image below I colorised it using what we call spectral index, which tells us what causes this radio emission, like electrons accelerated by magnetic fields.

Sgr A* would be an tiny spec at the center of this image.

Lunar Eclipse in partial phase with stacked HDRs. Notice the improved detail over the last version I've posted.

Lunar Eclipse yesterday

What’s a good #IndieWeb or #PersonalWebsite alternative to #Flickr? Some way of housing a photostream and most importantly albums of photos. What about videos?

Would a #StaticSiteGenerator do it?

I'm happy to introduce our new ultra-low tech CMS for smol, accessible websites. The goal was to make something that could be self-hosted, but friendly enough for people who don't SFTP or use a terminal. 3 PHP files, Apache, and Gemtext. Should work on any dumb old Apache host; a technical person could manage many of these for friends and family with zero maintenance. Happy to answer any questions or take bug reports.

Canada geese goslings between daisies. Daisies are called "Gooseflowers" in German:

"Gänseküken zwischen Gänseblümchen."

Oh shoot, I missed the new law coming out.

THEY FIGURED OUT SIDS

My husband is a pharmacist and pointed out that this also impacts the ability of doctors to safely anesthetize some patients, because sometimes they need to use a paralytic and if they can test for this enzyme they can have a much better chance of predicting how well their patient will recover

but also

HOLY SHIT??

I hope this brings some small measure of peace to parents blaming themself for the loss of an infant to SIDS. Because it wasn't that the mattress was wrong or there was a blanket nearby or whatever whatever because blankets don't fuck up obscure baby brain enzymes

it's a fucking enzyme thing

And I read this research was at least partially crowdfunded too, so we can maybe add another tally to the Seizing The Means Of Research Production victory column.

Here it is. The first picture of the Milky Way's #blackhole.

Incredible that we can do this.

Plume 0.7.2 is out

Changes for timelines, fix for federation and internal improvements https://fediverse.blog/~/PlumeDev/Plume%200.7.2%20is%20out/

Had an interesting start to a conversation yesterday about Mastodon servers, and the driving philosophy under them.

And how you're either aiming to create a service or a community, and how these actually have different motivations and requirements.

And I thought that was interesting.
